Introduction
This Technical Specification supports ISO 15007-1, which defines key terms and parameters for the
assessment of the visual impact on driver visual behaviour of TICS (Traffic Information Control Systems),
and other vehicle tasks or on-board systems.
ISO/TS 15007-2 supports ISO 15007-1 by giving guidance on equipment and procedures that can be used
in a practical TICS evaluation, with recommendations on how to interpret selected metrics (standards
of measurement) of visual behaviour.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 15007-2:2014(E)
Road vehicles — Measurement of driver visual behaviour
with respect to transport information and control
systems —
Part 2:
Equipment and procedures
1 Scope
This Technical Specification gives guidelines on equipment and procedures for analysing driver visual
behaviour, intended to enable assessors of transport information and control systems (TICS) to
— plan evaluation trials;
— specify (and install) data capture equipment, and;
— validate, analyse, interpret and report visual-behaviour metrics (standards of measurement).
It is applicable to both road trials and simulated driving environments.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 15007-1, Road vehicles — Measurement of driver visual behaviour with respect to transport information
and control systems — Part 1: Definitions and parameters
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 15007-1 apply.
4 Evaluation and trial planning
4.1 Subject selection
Evaluation trials of TICS applications should use a representative sample from the target population
for the specific TICS. This driver sample should be categorized by age, gender, visual ability (including
colour vision deficiencies, as well as whether and what type of corrective lenses are required to drive)
and driving experience.
4.2 Trial procedures
4.2.1 General
Assessment of driver visual demand can be carried out in relation to many forms of TICS applications
and road environments. Therefore, consideration should be given to the following factors influencing
driver visual behaviour.

ISO/TS 15007-2:2014(E)

4.2.2 Roadway/traffic specification
An appropriate operational environment for the specific TICS application under evaluation should be
chosen. The type of roadway and likely traffic conditions to be encountered should be defined within
the trial (or study). This may entail defining and documenting the roadway geometry, signals, and
surroundings – as well as describing the driving scenarios that participant will experience (including
speeds of travel, manoeuvres, traffic densities, movement of traffic, and so forth).
4.2.3 Vehicle specification
Experimental apparatus used to represent the driving task should be described as fully as practicable.
EXAMPLE Document the make and model of the road vehicle employed or the driving simulator characteristics
employed (including key parameters of the vehicle dynamics model, whether the simulator has a fixed- or moving-
base, the breadth of its field of view, etc.).
4.2.4 TICS specification
The characteristics of the TICS should be reported.
EXAMPLE Type, position and image quality of a visual display (resolution, contrast, colour-rendition,
reflectivity/glare).
4.2.5 Subject training
Trial objectives will determine the need for subject training in the use of the TICS. Assuming that some
form of training is required, subjects should receive clear and consistent guidance. The tasks and subtasks
associated with the TICS should be fully explained to the subject and the limitations of responsibility
and pacing of these between the driver and experimenter should be specified. Each subject’s familiarity
with the TICS prior to the trial should be reported. When determining the usability of the TICS device,
consideration should be given to the level and assessment of training required.
4.2.6 Data exclusion
Control procedures for individual evaluation trials within an experimental programme should include
guidelines for the conditions under which the trial is to be terminated.
EXAMPLE Trial aborted for failure to complete a task or subtask: document how this is to be recorded or how
the trial is to be re-scheduled.
4.2.7 Experimental conditions, tasks, subtasks, sub-subtasks, and relationship
4.2.7.1 Experimental condition
This is considered to encompass all visual behaviour of the driver during an experimental session.
EXAMPLE The distributions of visual scanning to all specified areas of interest of the visual scene (including
the TICS), from the specified start of a test route to its specified end.
Researchers will need the flexibility to define experimental conditions that are relevant for their research
goals. However, when studies involve examining glance patterns for secondary tasks while driving, the
following experimental conditions may be useful for planning and for performing the research. The
following terms are introduced because they define intervals of time and behaviour that may be of
particular interest when evaluating a TICS – and, hence, in analysing the glance data associated with a
TICS.

4.2.7.2 Task
refers to a sequence of interactions undertaken to achieve a goal glance behaviour may be measured
over the duration of a task.
EXAMPLE All visual behaviour occurring during the task of entering a destination into a route guidance
system.
4.2.7.3 Subtask
A sequence of interactions undertaken to achieve a sub goal of the task (often one specific interaction).
Glance behaviour may be measured over this (shorter) duration of the subtask.
EXAMPLE When entering a destination into the route guidance system, all visual behaviour associated with
entering the “city name” portion of the destination.
4.2.7.4 Sub-Subtask
Operations or interactions with lower-level subtask elements (e.g. individual controls or screens).
EXAMPLE On the route guidance system, glance behaviour associated with the sub-subtask of “verify the
city name appeared” on destination entry screen.
4.2.7.5 Relationship
The relationship between an experimental condition, a task, a subtask and a lower level subtask element
is graphically represented in Figure 1.
Annotation: Users of this standard may wish to consult references on hierarchical task analysis for
guidance on how to decompose a task (e.g. see Reference [4]).

5 Recording equipment
5.1 General
The following gives practical advice on the use of data recording equipment to monitor driver visual
demand.
5.2 Eye-Tracking equipment
In general, there are two different methodologies for recording eye-tracking data:
— Head-mounted eye-tracking systems.
— Remote eye-tracking systems.

5.2.1 Head-mounted eye-tracking systems
With head-mounted eye-tracking systems, the subject wears components of the eye-tracking system
directly on the head. The components necessary for the eye-tracking are mounted on a helmet, a cap
or on a device similar to glasses. Head-mounted eye-trackers may consist of the following components:
— Scene camera: this camera records what the subject can see.
— Eye camera: this camera records at least one eye.
NOTE 1 The eye can be recorded directly or via an infrared (IR) reflective mirror.
NOTE 2 Calibration of eye camera to scene camera is necessary to transform the x- and y-coordinates from the
eye camera coordinate system to the scene camera coordinate system. Thereby the head-mounted eye-tracking
system is able to indicate in the scene camera view where the subject is looking.
— Infrared LED: the infrared LED typically makes the eye visible in the infrared spectrum. Thereby
the system becomes more independent and robust from the surrounding lighting conditions.
5.2.2 Remote eye-tracking systems
With remote eye-tracking systems the glance behaviour is recorded by at least one camera mounted in
some location that can record the driver’s eyes, such as the dashboard.
Remote eye-trackers (and/or image recording systems) may consist of the following components:
— Eye camera: at least one camera is directed to the drivers face to capture where the subject is looking
— Scene camera: the scene camera records the road scene ahead.
NOTE 1 Calibration of eye-camera to scene-camera is necessary to transform the x- and y-coordinates from the
eye-camera coordinate system to the scene-camera coordinate system. Thereby the remote eye-tracking system
is able to indicate in the scene-camera view where the subject is looking.
— Infrared LED: the infrared LED typically makes the eye visible in the infrared spectrum. As a result,
the system becomes more independent and robust from the surrounding lighting conditions.
NOTE 2 Remote systems include conventional methods of capturing glance behaviour on video.
5.2.3 Additional components
The following additional components are typically required:
— Computer unit for storage and control
— Eye-tracking software: the eye-tracking software records, processes and stores the data
5.3 Additional recording equipment
5.3.1 Cameras
Additional cameras should be used for capturing the road scene ahead and in-vehicle activities. These
cameras should be as small and unobtrusive as is practicable. All recorded videos and the recorded eye-
tracking data should be synchronized using a single time code (as well as documentation of degree of
accuracy obtained), preferably the same time code from the eye-tracking equipment. If an experiment
includes acquisition of other types of data such as driving performance data consideration should be
given to applying the same time code or synchronization of eye-tracking, videos and any remaining data.

5.3.2 Video monitor
A video monitor is needed for examining the quality of the recorded videos. Ideally, such a monitor
should be positioned such that the experimenter is able to observe the recorded data periodically during
an experimental condition.
5.3.3 Microphones
Microphones can be readily interfaced into the video data-capture system and audio recordings can be
made. This option should be considered for capturing any verbal protocols from the experimenter or
subject. Auditory event markers may also be recorded to facilitate cueing during data reduction.
5.3.4 Event markers
After defining experimental conditions, tasks, subtasks and sub-subtasks event markers should be used
to mark these task intervals during the experiment in the recorded data. Clearly marked task intervals
will facilitate data reduction after the experiment.
5.3.5 Head tracker
When using head-mounted eye-tracking systems, they can be supplemented by adding technology for
head-tracking to transform the x- and y-coordinates from the scene camera coordinate system to a car
coordinate system.
5.4 Installation
Although the specific conditions of an experiment will vary, the following general principles should be
applied.
The installed data collection system and employed procedures should not obscure the driver’s view of
the roadway or any in-vehicle equipment, and should not cause the driver any unnecessary distraction.
These criteria also apply to any experimenters wh
